Intro Blog

Hello! Welcome to my wine tasting blog. I am a BIT DSS Option at Virginia Tech. Currently, I'm a junior, but I will be a senior next semester. I am most likely one of the younger people taking the course because I turned 21 on December 21, 2019. As for my experience with wine, I have very limited experience with wine. I tend to not like drinking alcohol too much. Recently, I have bought and shared wine for this class. So far, I have bought 2 black box wines that were both the Red Sangria type.

I have also been keeping up to date with the quizzes, lectures, and videos. I took Boyer's World Regions class and I loved it. This class seems to be structured similarly and reminds me of World Regions. I enjoy Boyer's videos, and I learn a lot from it. Personally, I wish other classes were as entertaining so I would be more motivated to pursue and learn the content that they teach. I have been trying wine every week since this class has started, and I will probably continue doing so throughout the course.

I think the Red Sangria wine was pretty good in comparison to other wines. I have tried some other wines, and they were really dry, and hard to enjoy. In contrast, the Red Sangria was fruity, and sweet. I hope to learn anything new about wine, I don't know much about it currently. Wine has such a wide variety and I would like to test the extremes and things in between. That concludes my first post, I hope to learn a lot more about Wine and its influence.
